I've always had a lot of trouble wrapping my head around the "Castiel is Dean's friend" thing
I know what you mean. Their relationship isn't that simple. Though I tend to see Cas as having been a kind of dangerous, yet devoted Pitbull. Protector, but definitely not a father-figure. Slowly learning from his new owner who saved him from the pound or dog fighting club or something... While Cas has been his protector, he's also been dependent on Dean for many things too, as Dean attempted to "re-train" him. And at this point, the training has failed, or maybe backfired. It's as if the one way in which Cas once made Dean feel safer has simply disappeared.
I'm interested in how that's going to end this season, as well as how Bobby's dilemma will be resolved, and not least--how Dean is going to wind up. I'm thinking some sort of Cliffhanger of Angst, in which Dean breaks and we have to wait until next season to see him fixed?
Me too. If this season's cliffhanger revolves around Dean, (Remember the good ol' days of 2.22 and 3.22? Mmmmm...) then I will be seriously ecstatic. Even moreso if they manage to squeeze in a dash of h/c beforehand.
